im trying to change my timing belt and water pump but i cant find a way to get the crank pully off it just keeps turning the motor over?? does anybody have any idea's on how i can get it to stop turnig over to loosen the bolt

 

Use and impact. Some people say to remove the starter and hold the flywheel but some bad things have happened to tranny cases that way.

 

well..if the motor is outta the car just get a peice of metal to hold the flywheel and use an impact wrench like he said^^

 

see the problem id i dont have a impact wrench and i cant find anything to fit in the teeth that would be strong enough to keep it from moving

 

Put it in fifth gear. Have a buddy stand on the brakes. Reef on it with a breaker bar with a pipe on the end.

"STRENGTH OF A BEAR!"

 

i would buy an impact wrench but i have to keep my car running let alone by a impact wrench with no air compressor....i fund my car and my tools with a shitty job at the age of 17 ...good jobs are hard to find....thanks i'll try the 5th gear thing

 

I got mine off with a breaker bar and a torch. Heat the bolt up, get a good, long breaker bar and give it hell. You have to shock it loose, applying more and more pressure slowly won't break it loose.

Also, The easiest way to keep the flywheel from turning is to jack up the car and unbolt the flywheel cover. I used a wrench as a bracket, bolted the wrench to the flywheel then the tranny case. Mista Bone posted a nice picture demonstrating it, trying searching his past post's or PMing him.

 

thanks for the reply i need this thing done soon

 

Go by the nearest tire shop/garage and have them break it loose with a impact gun[couple bucks cash in hand] then drive home at moderate rpm and you can then use a breaker bar or 1/2 inch ratchet depending on how big your arms are.
